Portland defeated Golden State 136–131 on December 14 at the Moda Center in a high-scoring affair that exceeded the Vegas total of 237.5 points. J. Grant and S. Sharpe each scored 35 points to lead the Trail Blazers, while S. Curry's 48 points paced the Warriors in a losing effort. Both teams shot efficiently from the field at 50.6%, though Portland's depth proved decisive: the Blazers made 20 three-pointers compared to Golden State's 24, but Portland's 30 assists and defensive discipline—holding the Warriors to a 125.0 offensive rating—made the difference. The fourth quarter proved pivotal, with Portland outscoring Golden State 40–32 to secure the five-point victory. Golden State's 34 assists and 14 steals showcased their ball movement, yet 18 turnovers undermined their efficiency. The game's pace and offensive firepower pushed both teams past their typical output, with Portland's balanced scoring attack and fourth-quarter execution outweighing Curry's individual brilliance. This win keeps Portland competitive in the Western Conference race.
